The Second wine of the legendary Pichon Comtesse de Lalande, this superb value offers many of the same silky, smoky ripe and supple notes as the top cuvee, but at a fraction of the price. It will also be read to drink anywhere from 5-15 years after the vintage. Superb wine, affordable price, excellent pedigree. Region: Pauillac (Bordeaux,) France Grapes: Planted 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc & 8% Petit Verdot Vinification: 18 months French oak (Allier and Nievre 25% new) Terroir: Garonne Gravel on top of clay Drink: 2015 - 2025
